Fellow TRF Members

I would like to start out by saying I really made some real mistakes here on TRF, I was being self- righteous, and immature about this whole situation. I have no one to blame but myself for my actions. In the future, I will treat all TRF members with respect and I understand that I went over the line with what was said and done here, however this actually has to do with my past as well. I really am sorry for my actions on TRF that hurt the feelings of other members on TRF. I have seen postings from other TRF members regarding my behaviour, and I see that I have several issues to address and I want to thank them for bringing them to light, it is a change I will make.

Jocke and Leo, I have really caused a serious hardship between us and I hope to mend this with time.
Thanks everyone for the emails that have been sent to me.

Regards

David,

I don't know you, nor have I conversed with you, but the fact that you have taken the time, and have the guts, to send such a nice note is admirable. All of us slip once in a while.
What I like most about this forum is the mature display of character balanced with some fun and humor, and of coarse, the outstanding professional knowledge shared by the more experienced. Thanks again!

I'm glad you are back and posting under your original screen name bro. I'm also glad that the people you upset are acting the way they are. All is good as far as I'm concerned. I have a friend that has these moments like you had every once in a while. We usually just punch him pretty hard to snap him out of it then he is good for months or even years.

Something like this. ****NSFW********

Everybody has a bad day Safe, but not everybody learns from it. Glad it all worked out in the end.

-Bruno.

Stepping up to the plate is a liberating experience. Hitting the ball out of the park is a distinct thrill. Remaining on the team takes commitment, patience, common sense and fortitude.

Unless a mod' tells you not to then post whatever you want to!!You're a grown man David (as this thread proves!) so don't go buckling now eh?!

That was really good Allen, thanks, this is a good day for me after the week I had with Sammie, her emergency care was a horrible wake up call to her illness, her suffering, the heart specialist giving us bad news and other things. Now she is not suffering and she is going to be cremated and then Jan and I will take care of the ashes when we stop crying. Sammies sister Spooky is distraught and she keeps calling for her, I hope soon she will realize her sister is gone.

Thanks everyone on TRF.

Thanks, David. I definitely understand. We have five cats now, all from the same mother - different litters. They are all currently healthy, but they are all between 11 and 12 years old. When they begin to shuffle off this mortal coil, we will be devastated!!!

Our next door neighbor just lost her mother, and her cat doted on her. She keeps going up to the mother's bedroom door and scratching to come in. She mopes about, and is often sick to her stomach. It is normal, though. When you open your arms to love, you also open them to heartache as well.

Carry on - Sammie would want it! Cheers!
